Hi-Res 986 pictures
Hello all,
How about we start a thread of hi-res images/glamour shots of our 986s? What we can do is to put a low-res copy of the image with a link to the high-res image. I'd like to use them as the revolving wallpaper on my windows systems. I'll start:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/4hakktagexkjvth/02.jpg?dl=0
This is my old 04S (dead now)
Tony

Hushypushy, those look too good to be real. Looks like gran turismo or something!

This is what I was looking for. The Bay Area is a beautiful place to take these types of glamour shots. This is coming off of Skyline, near Los Altos, right? Or maybe above Foothills College?

Hushpuppy. You're a skilled photographer. What filter did you use on image that shows the back of the car?

Looks like a really decent ND filter, but I'd like to know as well
Canon 5D?

Thanks! I use a circular polarizer on all my lenses. They work wonders for shiny things, and cars are just very curvy shiny things. Although it didn't really come into play much in that image...that one is all about Adobe Lightroom

I've been tempted to get a Top Gear style graduated ND filter, but alas I've stuck with the CP.
Nikon D750  I prefer Nikon bodies, but I miss shooting with Canon lenses. Sold all my Canon stuff for Nikon a few years ago and never looked back.

Thanks all.

I don't want everyone seeing my front bumper paint chips.
